Fyi, you might want to add a notice to your post that lets people know that it appears to be part of an ongoing series of false-dmcas from someone using a fake Nintendo-lookalike domain.

xkforce ,

This is not true. Look up mm-nintendo.com on icann yourself to see who registered it.

TLDR: Nintendo is the troll here.

Why? It's explicitly unrated online content not covered by any terms.

ILikeBoobies ,

They are still beholden to copyright, just like you would be if you hosted a rom distribution website

If you are notified then you have to remove the problem content

every couple months there is a new burning of the library of alexandria

Plastic_Ramses ,

I get the sentiment here, but it is absolutely hilarious to compare gmod content to the library of alexandria.

One of these days a Corp is going to push hard enough they get their rights stripped away for not meeting the 'to promote the progress of science and useful arts' part of the copyright clause and i'm starting to wonder if the big N is going to be the winner.

windie ,

Copyright and progress of science and arts is an oxymoron in my view.

OsaErisXero ,

Ya gotta remember that at its inception, at least in the US, copyright had 2 things going for it:

The duration was limited to 14 years, not the death of the author +95 or fucking whatever it is currently, and that much of that duration would need to get burnt up in duplication and distribution of the work, all of which had significant costs associated with it. Hundred year long guarantees with unlimited instant reproduction of a work and instant mass distribution functionally for free would have been anathema at the time, and this kind of abuse of the system goes directly counter to the original as-written intent.

Too bad those 'originalists' in the courts only use that concept to suppress women and minorities instead of maybe picking up a small W with it here.

Kinda like when Warner Music Group tried to strong arm the world over "Happy Birthday" but when they were finally challenged on it in court it was ruled that they never actually owned the copyright.

Think of all the money Nintendo lost over people playing that custom content that was paying homage to their beloved titles! Man, sure glad Nintendo scared them into taking those down.

Igloojoe ,

It sure will teach them never to be a nintendo fan again.

misanthropy ,

Yep. I haven't bought a Nintendo product in a long time, and it's purely because they're horrible custodians of their own products and brands and seem to actively hate their fans

Starkstruck ,

Fr, Nintendo isn't going to get any more money out of people not using Nintendo addons. Instead they basically lose free advertising and make people dislike them even more. Shooting themselves in the foot again.

I'm not surprised. For anyone using someone else's material without permission, it's just a matter of time.

Arbiter , to Games in Garry's Mod to remove ALL Nintendo content from the Steam Workshop due to takedown

Yeah, time to move away from the workshop.

Can we go back to svn links for mods?

I don't think the Steam Workshop is the issue here. I'm glad it exists, and direct downloads or snv links are still a reasonable alternative for mods that can't be hosted on the Workshop for whatever reason.

Mongostein , to Games in Command & Conquer™ The Ultimate Collection now available on Steam

OpenRA is better

rdri ,

Is better than Red Alert? But is it better than Renegade?

Renacles , to Games in Temtem will stop (most) development later this year, monetization will be removed at a later date.

I don't understand why they insist on the MMO aspect, people are only coming back for a little while but that wouldn't be an issue if Temtem weren't live-service.
